God Bless the 2nd Amendment

by Infidelesto on October 24, 2007 · Comments

I expressed my 2nd Amendment right this past weekend and purchased my first firearm.

I grew up around guns (my Dad has several) and I’ve always wanted one for myself, but never could really afford something new and good quality.  Well, that time is gone and I now have personal protection for myself and my family.

This purchase is very significant to me on a personal level.  I have long been a NRA supporter and gun rights advocate.  I respect and admire people like Ted Nugent and Charlton Heston.  I respect my Dad for teaching me gun safety, teaching me to shoot, and handle guns, as well as the necessity for having them around when you need them.  Just having a weapon next to my bed makes me feel so secure and it’s a feeling that I will always have.  Yes, it did cost a decent buck, but it’s an investment that I will carry with me the rest of my life.

I know most people would say, “oh great, you bought a gun, what do you need THAT for?”

Especially in states like California where children are taught to FEAR guns and are dangerously intimidated when they see them.  It’s really sad that the majority of California citizens are fed the propaganda that guns are bad and people are good.  That theory couldn’t be further from the truth.

Arizona, by far, has the most lax gun laws and actually encourages citizens to arm up.   If the US ever was invaded, Arizona would definitely be the last place anyone would want to invade.  It’s a well armed state, and I only WISH other states would adopt gun laws like Arizona’s.

Here’s what I bought… It’s a Smith & Wesson M&P .40 (M&P stands for Military & Police)

It’s a beautiful, comfortable, light, ergonomic gun.  I was sold on this gun for a number of reasons that I won’t go into, but if you are in the arena for a new gun, this one is a really good choice for any average citizen looking to arm up and protect themselves, their home, and their family.

It won the 2007 handgun of the year

    Congratulations sir, it does look like a fine gun indeed. If only my government trusted me with my own self defence, I may have been able to purchase something of such good quality and limitless potential in regard to the defence of myself and my loved ones. God bless.

    Congrats on the fine purchase. From the photo, I think I recognze the "Starfire" round. Very good choice on both the firearm and the round. Do a bit of practice every chance you can. And remember, "Gun control should be nothing more than the ability to hit your target."
  • Very Cool! How Long did it take to get one in California?
